34.4 mpg apparently, is that any good?

I wasnt exactly driving slow or slowly accelerating either

1.6 corsa sport 97 btw

Via alfreton? I take it you went to see someone or something because thats a long route!

The mpg thing sounds about right if you were giving it some!

I just had a company car change to a new shape astra 1.6 Twinport.

I sent it back and got my golf back.

It did 215 miles to my £40. Then I left it with 195 miles on the bar above the red. I can't afford that shizzle alongside the Corsa haha!

Nah, he means the car is burning too much petrol to the petrol/air ratio. So you're actually wasting petrol without knowing it.

Highest I've got is around 42 mpg

Mid thirtys on average I'd say though, never work it out normally!

Never worked mine out, I got 378 miles to the last £50 I put in, my mate always goes on he gets 400 to £50 in his Fabia VRs so I had to try and beat it, he drives like a priest though

In my old 1.2 8v i got 50mpg a few times but as soon as it saw 70mph+ it dropped dramatically.

In my sport i have had around 45mpg driving sensibly and about 35ish'mpg when needing to get to work when im gonna be late
